قَدْ مَضَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَرِفَاعَةَ فِي السُّجُودِ عَلَى الْجَبْهَةِ، وَكَذَلِكَ حَدِيثُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ فِي سُجُودِهِ فِي الطِّينِ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ هُوَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابِ بْنِ الْأَرَتِّ قَالَ: " شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شِدَّةَ الرَّمْضَاءِ فِي جِبَاهِنَا وَأَكُفِّنَا فَلَمْ يُشْكِنَا ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khabbab bin al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him) that we complained to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the intense heat of the sun, that our foreheads and palms were burning, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not accept our complaint.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُقْرِئُ، أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْإِسْفِرَايِينِيُّ، ثنا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَاضِي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ثنا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: " كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَآخُذُ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْحَصَى فِي كَفِّي حَتَّى تَبْرُدَ وَأَضَعُهَا بِجَبْهَتِي إِذَا سَجَدْتُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَلَوْ جَازَ السُّجُودُ عَلَى ثَوْبٍ مُتَّصِلٍ بِهِ لَكَانَ ذَلِكَ أَسْهَلَ مِنْ تَبْرِيدِ الْحَصَا فِي الْكَفِّ وَوَضْعِهَا لِلسُّجُودِ عَلَيْهَا وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): "I used to pray the Zuhr prayer with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand so that they would cool down, and I would put them at my place of prostration so that I could prostrate on them, protecting myself from the scorching heat."
Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that if prostrating on a garment that is attached to one were permissible, that would have been easier than cooling pebbles in the hands and then placing them at the place of prostration.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى ابْنِ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَكَ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ سَوَادَةَ الْجُذَامِيِّ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ حَيَوَانَ السَّبَائِيِّ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " رَأَى رَجُلًا يَسْجُدُ بِجَنْبِهِ وَقَدِ اعْتَمَّ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ فَحَسَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ جَبْهَتِهِ " ⦗١٥٢⦘ وَفِيمَا رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْقُرَشِيِّ قَالَ: رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلًا يَسْجُدُ عَلَى كَوْرِ عِمَامَتِهِ فَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ ارْفَعْ عِمَامَتَكَ، وَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى جَبْهَتِهِ " وَهَذَا الْمُرْسَلُ شَاهِدٌ لِمُرْسَلٍ صَالِحٍ.
